Here is the current breakdown of the motorcycles being entered in the Cannonball Coast to Coast Endurance Run.  As you can see Harley Davidson dominates the list, this is really no surprise as there are a lot of good old JD's still out there being ridden daily.  Harley Davidson, Henderson and Indian all made good bikes.
I saw a 1920's Brough Superior the other day that would be THE bike to do this ride on, however I have no where near enough money to make that happen.  These bikes were made in the 1920's and an SS100 would do an honest 100 mph and at the time were ridden that way.
I never have been a brand elitist and probably never will be.  There are way too many cool bikes out there
